Acushnet PD Offer Reward

Last week someone saw a man dump a trash bag off the Slocum street bridge. Inside the bag was a 4-year old pit bull. With no leads Acushnet Police is asking for the publics help using another tactic. They are asking for donations so they can offer a reward.

The dead dog was emaciated and looked like it had been used in dog fights.

The coalition for animals of Greater New Bedford is offering a $1,000 reward for anyone who comes forward with information as to who might have done this horrific act!

Donations can be sent to:

The Coalition for Animals of Greater New Bedford

834 Kempton Street New Bedford, Massachusetts 02743

If donations are sent by mail please specify "reward money for pit bull"

Please call Acushnet Police Department at 1-508–998–0240 if you have any information regarding this matter.
